1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveTo construct a nomogram incorporating clinical-radiological and radiomics features from computed tomography (CT) for distinguishing invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) from adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) in ground-glass nodules (GGNs).

methodsThis retrospective study included 473 GGN patients with postoperative pathological confirmation of AIS, MIA, or IAC. The training set comprised 257 patients from Yantaishan Hospital, while the test set, used for external validation, included 216 patients from the Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College. Radiomics features were selected, and a radiomics model was constructed using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and minimum redundancy maximum relevance (mRMR) methods. A clinical-radiological model was developed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The nomogram was generated by combining the two models. Its performance was evaluated via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, calibration curve analysis, and decision curve analysis (DCA).

resultsThe radiomics model included 11 features, while the clinical-radiological model incorporated lobulation, age, and long diameter. The nomogram outperformed both individual models in terms of accuracy and area under the curve (AUC) in both the training and test sets. Calibration curve analysis confirmed good consistency between actual and predicted outcomes, and DCA indicated the nomogram's clinical utility.

conclusionThe nomogram is a non-invasive, accurate tool for preoperative differentiation of GGN types, providing valuable guidance for clinicians in treatment planning.
